As we synthesize theliterature and our arguments across these levels, we also consider how equitable practices at anyone level reinforces equitable practices at the others. Envisioning socially just engineeringeducation requires thinking within and across all three of these levels.Macro Level Organization of Engineering for EquityEngineering for equity and social justice involves a recognition of the ideologies shapingengineering and the orientations that engineering has towards society. Historically, science andengineering have been shaped by ideologies that are technocratic and exclusionary, oftensubversively framed as rationalistic (Bazzul & Tolbert, 2019; Gravel et al., 2021; Gunckel &Tolbert

There were instances where participants’discussed identity related items that did not seem to fit with Gee’s approach. To date, those itemshave been coded as “General Identity”. We are continuing to analyze interviews and areexamining additional identity frameworks to understand how our General Identity code mayconnect to Gee’s framework or other frameworks.Phase 2 InterviewsWe are currently preparing to conduct our Phase 2 interviews. These interviews will be completeby ASEE 2019 and initial results will be shared on our poster as appropriate. To

Scholars have also mentioned the closely-relatedconceptualizations of sustainable design [27] and, more explicitly, empathic design [28].In this review, we sought to explore what empirical evidence exists for cultivating empathy, andwhich learning activities or pedagogical approaches can be used for its development in STEMstudents. While we do examine how some of these other concepts related to empathy wereintegrated into educational contexts, empathy remained at the forefront of our inquiry.3 Theoretical FrameworkIn 2019, Stanford psychologist Jamil Zaki published The War For Kindness: Building Empathy InA Fractured World [29
